Geomyza bracata Rondani, 1875 View in CoL

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1875a: 252 (key), 253 (description).

TYPE LOCALITY: “ in collibus ditionis parmensis [ Parmese hills ( Italy)]” .

TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♂, syntype (only part of the thorax remains) ( MZUF: Box 34): Geomyza Mgn / bracata Rnd. / 1791 / Holotypus Geomyza bracata Rnd. , ♂, desig. Á. Soós, 1979 / Geomyza tripunctata Fall. , ♂, det. Á. Soós, 1979 / Geomyza bracata .

CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Geomyza tripunctata Fallén, 1823 ( Soós 1984e: 56) View in CoL .

REMARKS: Rondani (1875a: 253) described Geomyza bracata from just the male sex, without specifying either the number or the length of the specimens: “ lectus mas tantum [collected the male only]”. Árpad Soós labeled the single MZUF male as “ holotype ” but he never indicated this specimen as holotype in any of his publication (E.P. Nartshuk & J.W.A. van Zuijlen, pers. comm., 2012). We consider it as a syntype because Rondani did not specify he had a single specimen.
